PUNISHABLE & MOORE,
callers and Manufacturers of Boots
and Shoes.

Evidence of thrift and prosperity is
in what is seen. Dallas is noted for
her mercantile prosperity, for her
enterprising business men and elegant
stores and complete stocks of goods.
Among these merchants are Mcssrs.
Hunstable Il Moore, TIP Elm street.
They are engaged at the present in
remodeling the interior and embelish-
ing the front Of their store. The walls
and ceiling are beautifully papered
with elegant designs; the painting of
the shelving and woodwork is done in
mahogany, trimmed in ebony and
gold, which, comb ned with the color
of the walls and ceiling, present hand
some appearance, indeed. The floor is
to be painted granite, and sofas are
to be placed in the center of the room
for the ladies convenience and comfort.
In the rear of the store room is the
office and back of this is the cutting
room and work shop where are num-
Der of workmen engaged in turning
out boots and shoes at rapid rate.
The quality of the work is excellent,
for none but first class workmen are
employed. The establishment from
front to rear embraces everything that
goes toward making up a first class
house. The increase of busis
ness has been such as to require all
these improvements. The stock which
they carry is the best made, latest de-
signs, and embrace as great a variety
as can be found anywhere. Remem-
Der the number: TIP Elm street.

Rocky Fork Road

Sam Ward, one Of the directors, says
of the Rocky Fork railroad, now in
course o: construction and the purpose
Of the company to extend the road to
Cooke City:
The work of grading is being done
as rapidly as possible, and We are
making every effort to get it completed
before frost interferes. We hope to
have the road in operation before jan
uary, but, of course, the ground might
freeze up at anytime now and inter-
fere with grading. We do not intend
to build further than the Coal Banks
this year, but we have engineers max
ing preliminary surveys around the
Stillwa.er TO Nye City and over the
range at the head of Rock creek to
Cook City. We have been told by
parties who have explored the couu-
try that the Clark's Fork is the only
possible route for railroad to Cook
City; but. Of course, we want to satisfy
ourselves by actual instrumental sur
vey as to which is the shortest practi-
cable route. But we will get there next
year, no matter what difficulties are
encountered. Mr.. Ryan, of st. Paul,
says the road to Cooke City will be
built next year, even ifaswitchback
